An Applesauce Treat for your face!


Great for your skin and yummy in your tummy. A applesauce mask for your face! Why? Well, apples are rich in vitamins A, B, and C, along with and malic acid, which works to allow your skin to absorb those vitamins. Plus, it actually will help even out your skin tone by lightening any sun-darkened patches or freckles. AND it is great for summer dry skin! I love at home masks that you can also snack on... this one is just a mix of wheatgerm and applesauce, so it is 100% edible (and a bonus: wheat germ is rich in vitamin E and B vitamins your skin will love!). Here is how you make your very own applesauce mask:

1 TBSP natural applesauce

1 TBSP germ (wheat germ is a great natural exfoliator)

Blend together into a paste and apply over face (avoid getting to close to your eyes)

Allow it to dry, and do its thing... then rinse off.
